<span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black">The PMIx Administrative Steering Committee (ASC) is soliciting short talks from researchers and practitioners whose work is related to the PMIx standard interface for inclusion in the first-quarter PMIx
ASC meeting (meeting information below). We encourage presentations demonstrating novel application or optimization of the PMIx interface, as well as presentations that introduce new use cases or other issues for broad discussion. Selected speakers will share
their work and ideas with the PMIx community which could result in shaping the future direction of the PMIx standard or related efforts. </span><o:p></o:p></p>

<span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black">The objective of the PMIx standard is to provide an implementation-independent specification to facilitate interaction between applications, tools, and middleware and system runtime environments. The
interface focuses on supporting application launch and wire-up; supporting tools that wish to inspect, steer, and/or debug parallel applications; providing interfaces to manage dynamic workload applications, to support fault tolerance and cross-library coordination;
and facilitate communication across container boundaries. </span><o:p></o:p></p>
